NASCAR made a move to more consistent start times starting in 2010 with most of its regular-season daytime races starting at 1 p.m. or 3 p.m. Eastern and its Chase for the Sprint Cup races most recently starting at 2 p.m. or 3 p.m. Eastern.

Prior to that, the Daytona 500 started after 3 p.m. and ended under the lights. (Last year’s race was run in prime time due to a long rain delay.)

Although the start time is listed at 1 p.m., that typically is the time for the prerace invocation. The green flag likely will be closer to 1:30 p.m.

Among the start times for other Daytona events:

• The Daytona Shootout, which does not yet have an announced format or sponsor, will start at 8 p.m. on Saturday Feb. 16.
